Nurnberg welcome newly-promoted Schalke 04 in a clash where the visitors arrive full of confidence after sealing automatic Bundesliga promotion with a 1-0 win over Dusseldorf. As die Knappen aim to put icing on the cake, we predict a 3-1 away win. Nurnberg sit comfortably in mid-table with little left to play for. Their recent form has been inconsistent, averaging 1.3 points per game across the last 10 matches. The Bavarians have been relatively solid defensively at home, conceding just 0.75 goals per game, while forward Mohamed Ali Zoma remains their only absentee.
Schalke, meanwhile, have been one of the form teams in the division, collecting 2.1 points per game from their last 10 matches and winning each of their previous five outings. The return of Bosnia striker Edin Dzeko is another major boost for die Knappen as they look to finish the campaign strongly. Historically, Schalke have dominated this fixture, winning 17 of the previous 25 meetings.
Considering Schalke's superior form and momentum after promotion, our prediction firmly points toward Away Win, alongside BTTS and Over 2.5 goals (60% of H2H meetings cleared this line).
This Bundesliga 2 match will be played on Saturday 9 May 2026 at 19:30.
